Character Background and Description
Family
Jarred Rose is the first-born child of David and Jessica Rose. He is a fourth-grade student at Phanes Bay Primary School. He has two younger siblings: Frank Rose (5) and Samantha Rose (3). Jarred typically has no problem getting along with his siblings, aside from usual squabbles over toys and playtime. Since Jarred is such an active child, his parents have imposed a curfew at 7:00PM.

Education
Jarred’s academic performance meets the average performance for his class, showing no particular aptitude for maths or sciences. He scores slightly above average in his writing, as his interests make him lean toward creative expression. He has trouble paying attention in class, and although he is not a particularly disruptive student, he has often been reprimanded for daydreaming. His stories often include soldiers and loose references to the war, and he is often eager to get to the History subjects in class.

Recreation
Jarred has a very active imagination, always dreaming up new scenarios to play out with his friends. His favorite pretend game is called “soldiers” where he and his friends divide into two groups, find sticks or loose debris to mimic crossbows, and act out battles from the war. Although some people find the game less than appropriate, Jarred does not understand why. Because of the evident discomfort and the warnings from his parents about the game, Jarred treats the game as a secret between him and his friends, only playing when adults are out of sight. His closest friends include Faithe Fay, Becky Raynerson, Lenny Presley, and Christopher Lincoln.
